Summary
The case involves two related suits: Suit No. 187 of 2024 filed by Trishta Bharat Vardhan against Champaklal K. Vardhan, and Suit No. 409 of 2023 filed by Anita Bharat Vardhan against Champaklal K. Vardhan and others. An interim application (No. 4098 of 2025) was filed by the original defendant, Champaklal K. Vardhan, seeking amendment of the order dated 23 April 2026. The Court, after hearing, ordered that a specific sentence be inserted at the end of paragraph 3 of that order, stating that any refund of court fees shall be made as per the applicable rules. No substantive factual dispute or legal argument was recorded in the short order. The order was thereby amended to include the provision on court‑fee refund.
